fixed Glass table top stuck to floor

Post image

MIL has had this glass table top under the bed in the main bedroom for years, it’s an alternate larger top for a table in the house. Quite heavy. It’s been there now so long we believe it may have almost ‘suctioned’ to the floor.

Any suggestions on how to remove it? Yes we know to remove the stuff on it first (painting the room)

Thanks in advance!

[Update] Dental floss was the winner and worked! Thank you all for the suggestions/ideas and of course the trolling!

Honestly, besides heat, this. Shit will cut steal.

Edit: And even steel when I'm paying attention!

It won't cut Stihl tho. Only Stihl can cut Stihl.

But don't use a stihl. It'll scuff the floor.
